Feeding problems: Refusing to eat | BabyCenter

Your child needs some encouragement and structure from you when it comes to mealtimes (such as regular meals and healthy choices), but not much more. William Sears, noted pediatrician and author of 23 books on childcare, says whether and how much your child eats should ultimately be up to her. "Your child may eat well one day and eat practically nothing the next," says Dr. Sears, who co-authored The Family Nutrition Book with his wife, Martha.

Then, starting with very small portions, gently offer the new food to your child three times during a meal. If she refuses, don't overreact; just move on to something you know she likes. Try offering the same food at another meal.

Can I Claim My Parents as Dependents on My Health Insurance Plan?

The term "dependent" typically refers to someone's children, spouse or domestic partner, but parents also may be covered in certain situations. However, their eligibility varies widely based on your insurance plan.

Parents who are 65 or older may be eligible for dependent status on your tax forms, but they generally are ineligible for dependent status on your health insurance plan. This is because they already are entitled to health coverage through the government-sponsored Medicare plan.
